SDCC 2026: Vampi Travels To Golarion In Dynamite’s ‘Pathfinder/Vampirella: Blade Of Darkness’ This October
by Erik Amaya
Vampi is finally going on a campaign!
As part of Dynamite’s announcements in advance of Comic-Con International: San Diego, the company revealed Friday the forthcoming Pathfinder/Vampirella: Blade of Darkness. Writer Erik Burnham and artist Federico Dallocchio take the creative reins as Vampirella ventures into the Pathfinder environment for the first time.
When vampire lord Zaloch performs a ritual to summon a being who will give his kind an advantage, Vampi appears before him. Of course, before she can understand her new predicament, monster hunters arrive. Will she come to understand the rules of Pathefinder and the realm of Golarion before crossing barbs and punches with the likes of Kyra, Merisiel, and Sarenite? Or will they all become allies before too long?
Burnham also makes his debut within the Pathfinder reality with this miniseries.
“Golarion is a fantastic sandbox to play in, and the only complaint I’ve had so far is that I only have so many pages to explore it,” he said in a statement. “Not only has introducing Vampirella into a new world full of gods, monsters, and heroes been a treat for me, so has getting to write those gods, monsters, and heroes for the first time — and knock on wood, not the last!”
Previous Pathfinder comic book artists Steven Cummings and Andrew Huerta contribute covers to the debut issue alongside RPG and gaming artist Wayne Reynolds, who provides character sheet covers (as seen above). Additionally, according to Dynamite, “collectors can chase after rare Pathfinder collectibles” via mystery blind bags.
Pathfinder/Vampirella: Blade of Darkness is due out this October.
